Sammantha is a transplant from New Brunswick and has been living in Calgary since 2013. She Graduated from MH Vicars School of Massage Therapy in 2019 and has been practicing Graston since 2020.
Her massage practice includes a combination of therapeutic, Swedish, and relaxation along with teaching some self care techniques to help you get to where you want to be with your health.

“I knew with an absolute inner certainty that I would be a chiropractor. I was thoroughly inspired,” said Dr. Fairbourn, moments after her first meeting with a local chiropractor. “This was the strongest message I had ever received through my intuition and I am so grateful that I followed it. Not only did I discover my future passion and career, I learned that we have an inner guidance system that we can use to find healing and joy in life.”
My Chiropractic Path
Dr. Fairbourn began her pre-medical education at Mount Royal College here in Calgary and at the University of Victoria. After completing her study there, she was accepted at Palmer College of Chiropractic in San Jose, California.
During her four years at Palmer, she found that she had a special interest in Activator Methods, a low force adjusting technique and in muscle testing. Muscle testing is a tool used in many techniques to be able to tune into our innate intelligence.
After graduating in 2002, Dr. Fairbourn returned to the Calgary area to establish her chiropractic practice. She genuinely believes in the principles of alternative healing which is that the body can heal itself when there is no interference. With this strong belief, Dr. Fairbourn uses a variety of techniques to thoroughly assess and treat her patients.
She also became certified in Activator Methods and primarily uses this technique for chiropractic adjustments.
Personally
Dr. Fairbourn has two beautiful children, Gracie and Jackson. They were born naturally and had their first chiropractic adjustment hours after birth. (If that sounds interesting, be sure to ask Dr. Fairbourn to explain.)
When she is not at work she enjoys being outdoors, walking her dog, mountain biking, snowboarding, cooking and spending time with her kids.
“Thank you for visiting our site. I hope to get the opportunity to meet you in person and discuss your specific health challenge.

As a Physiotherapist with a special interest in women’s health, I enjoy working with a diverse clientele of all ages and believe in the body’s ability to heal through mindful movement.
I graduated in 2006 with a Bachelors of Physiotherapy from the College of Medicine, University of Lagos and later obtained a Master’s Degree in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy practice (2012) from Sheffield Hallam University in the United Kingdom. I am a firm believer in lifelong learning with post-graduation courses in Pelvic Floor and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy with a particular interest in back pain, female urinary incontinence and dyspareunia.
I have over 15 years’ experience (from Nigeria, United Kingdom and Canada) with relevant experience in women’s health, musculoskeletal and geriatric practice. This has influenced my biopsychosocial approach to the management of pelvic floor conditions. I place high value on the therapeutic relationship with my clients and my treatment approach is a mix of hands-on, exercise prescription and client education to name a few.
I love spending my free time reading books of various subjects from the history of civilization to mindfulness and the power of positive thinking. I have also developed a love for yoga and meditation.

Dr. Stewart is a “hands on” chiropractor who focuses on everyday aches and pains resulting from “sit – stand – sleep” postural imbalances as well as week-end warrior injuries.
Over the years Dr. Stewart has come to realize that every patient is unique and may require a different approach during treatments. Dr. Stewart believes that what happens in the office is only part of the treatment – patients are encouraged to modify their postures to aid in recovery. If you have proper posture while sitting or sleeping your body has a greater opportunity to heal and prevent problems from occurring.
Dr. Stewart treats “frozen shoulder” and similar issues with the Niel-Asher Technique, for more information checkout frozenshoulder.com. He has served as a reviewer for many years with the Alberta College of Chiropractors and presently serves as an investigator/member of Complaints Resolution Committee for the College.
Dr. Stewart is married with two adult children and has a variety of interests outside of work including hockey, golf, hiking, biking and skiing. For Dr. Mike, a good summer day could start off with a bike ride then a game of golf and finish with a relaxing motorcycle ride in the foothills. Dr. Stewart has been blessed to use his skills in leading and participating in medical based mission teams to Guatemala and Malawi.
